About 148 Ritchie Street
Set on nearly three-quarters of an acre in the town of Annapolis Royal, this early 20th-century home offers walkable access to nearly every amenity the community has to offer—schools, the public library, the Historic Gardens, farmers’ market, shops, cafés, and restaurants. Tucked into a desirable residential setting, the property features a deep backyard that borders the Harvest Moon Trail, part of Nova Scotia’s scenic rail-to-trail network. With some thoughtful clearing, a direct path from the yard could connect to this green corridor—perfect for cycling, dog-walking, or a quiet stroll into town without ever stepping onto the main road. In 2025, the home underwent major infrastructure upgrades, including a full electrical rewire with a new 200 amp panel and the installation of a ducted heat pump system for efficient, year-round climate control. Additional updates include a new kitchen floor and ceiling tiles, plus fresh carpet and underlay in the dining room—essential improvements already in place, offering a solid foundation for future enhancements. Spanning nearly 2,000 square feet, the layout includes three bedrooms and one full bath, with potential to add a second bathroom upstairs or convert part of the main floor into a fourth bedroom. A generous front sunroom captures the morning light and adds flexible space for everyday living. Homes in this price range, in a quiet and walkable area of Annapolis Royal, are increasingly rare. With some thoughtful updates, this property presents a compelling opportunity—whether as a full-time residence, long-term investment, or a foothold in one of Nova Scotia’s most storied small towns.
